Monsoon Palace (Sajjangarh)

Floating Above the Clouds:
A Guide to Udaipur's Monsoon Palace (Sajjangarh)Perched dramatically on top of the steep Bansdara peak of the Aravalli hills, Sajjangarh Palace—popularly known as the Monsoon Palace—looks like a lonely mountain fortress guarding the valley below.

Built in 1884 by Maharana Sajjan Singh, this striking white marble palace was designed to be a grand astronomical center to track the movement of monsoon clouds, as well as a luxury hunting lodge for the royal family.

A Bird’s-Eye View of the KingdomBecause the palace sits high above the main town, the drive up the winding hill road through the surrounding wildlife sanctuary is an adventure in itself.

Once you step onto the grand stone terraces of the palace, you are treated to a jaw-dropping, bird's-eye panoramic view of the entire city of Udaipur, its sprawling lakes, and the endless mountain ranges extending into the horizon.

Why You Need to Go for Sunset:

The Sky Spectacle:
The Monsoon Palace is universally considered the absolute best sunset vantage point in Udaipur.

The Vibe:
Watching the blazing orange sun drop below the distant mountains while the city lakes far below begin to glow with evening lights is a visual you won't forget anytime soon.
